What's on your nightstand?

[His_blizzard]

Mercenaries of Gor
Wrong Beach Island
Capital Crimes

[Polaris]

I'm reading cookbooks too, DowntownAmber...gives me ideas what to cook

Right now I'm reading Notes of a Dirty Old man by Charles Bukowski -- I like his prose much better than his poetry

[gemmy]

i've just moved and haven't quite finished unpacking my nightstand, but just before moving i had started "The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty" by, AN Roquelaure (Anne Rice)

"They are lengthy BDSM novels, reminiscent of Story of O, set in a medieval fantasy world based very loosely on the legend of Sleeping Beauty. The novels contain both maledom and femdom scenarios, as well as vivid imageries of bisexuality, ephebophilia and bestiality" (Wikipedia description)

It is a very hard-core, graphic novel as i'm sure only Anne Rice can write and i'm not sure how i liked it to be honest - it's a very open book on sexual slavery period, male and female - the heirarchy of stature. It raised many different feelings in me while reading, so i suppose in that aspect, it was an interesting read

I bought the entire series (Beauty's Punishment & Beauty's Release) and will finish them once i've done unpacking and see how they go.

I'd probably rate it an unsure 7 *smiles*

Female Dominance: Rituals and Practices

I can't exactly rate it since I just bought it, but hopefully it's helpful even though my relationship is F/f and not F/m.

Not on the nightstand, but on the bookshelf nearby! Something for just about everyone in that series.

Right now "The Alchemist" is next to the bed, but I have to admit I haven't started it and it's currently being used as a coaster...

[paola]

Just finished "Old Man's War" by John Scalzi it is a trilogy so now I am on the second book "The Ghost Brigades" & if the third "The Last Colony" is anything like the first 2 I'll be stoked! I'll give the first two a 9 rating.

Safe, Sane, Consensual and Fun By John Warren

This is book that answers the question, "What kind of scene can I do?" it's written for beginners who just can't think of something easy.

I love the tips for safety. I'd suggest it to anyone needing a little help getting started and to more experienced for a fun quick idea.

I'm reading cookbooks too, DowntownAmber...gives me ideas what to cook

Right now I'm reading Notes of a Dirty Old man by Charles Bukowski -- I like his prose much better than his poetry

i am also reading a bukowski book reading women again. i love his books but agree the prose is better than the poetry

[ck10019]

I'm reading "Life in the Universe" by Lewis Dartnell. It's the best beginner's book about the origin of the universe (astrobiology). I give it a 10+

I'm trying to get into serial romance, "Gideon" by Jacquelyn Frank, but it's a struggle...I give this a 3. The introduction is awful.

[gemmy]

Hmmm this thread reminds me, I should be finishing the Beauty series lol instead I've just finished a couple of 'escape' reads by Nora Roberts hehe (not nearly the intelligent ones posted in this forum by others but I like them lol)

[icey]

get the beauty books out mastersgem there the best!

im reading tory haydens - somebody elses kids - right now, her books are sad but i have a morbid liking for anything like that and true murders in fact all true storys and films ...Icehawk says thats another subby trait lol

[ShaynaUnderBondage]

A Boy Called It.



its a great book.

[StillBehindBlueEyes]

The beauty books aren't on the bed stand but very close! Love them, only read them when I was on the treadmill they were so good!

[J-Go]

A Boy Called It.



its a great book.

Good book...very very sad...A man named Dave is the follow up of his story, much happier ending!

[DowntownAmber]

"Little Red Book of Selling" and "Value Forward Selling."

And yes, I'm genuinely into them. I'm a dork, sue me. So far each one is an eight, VFS may climb to a nine.

[angelic.zest]

i have read the Jacquelyn Frank series and to be quite honest, i would give it a 3-4. Definately *fluff* reading.

Currently i have Devil May Cry by Sherrilyn Kenyon......again i would give it a 4. It is wonderful, non-complicated, enjoyable reading. Nothing about it is life changing though.

[seekingsusie]

I guess I'm a geek, too, but I read the Beauty series by not reading them, but by listening to Audible books. Of course, I was living in a country where you couldn't buy nor order the books in print ...

[StillBehindBlueEyes]

Love Slave by Bertrice Small 10+
Love her books but this is a fav.

[J-Go]

The New Earth by Eckhart Tolle
OK Ok I know it's on the Oprah book cub...very un-Domly but this guy is amazing.
I give it a 7+ so far

[DOMLORD]

Hammer's Slammers, just can't pass up a SciFi w/ tanks.

[ck10019]

"Giger's Alien" by H.R. Giger. It's 9. Illustrations are scary beautiful and the words are taken from his diary.
